lady, and before we could say anything, both 
pails were filled with milk. Giving them a quar¬ 
ter, back to camp we went, and sitting down en¬ 
joyed a hearty laugh over devising ways to dis¬ 
pose of all the milk then on hand. One of the 
campers' usual troubles (scarcity of fire wood) 
was here unknown. The shore was littered with 
wood and we burned it to our heart’s content. 
Our start the next morning was delayed until 
7130 o’clock by a very heavy mist on the river. 
A slight breeze coming up dispelled that, and we 
had ideal weather all day. We passed a few 
towns, but were too far out on the river to pull 
in to shore until reaching Grenville, where the 
first rapids were encountered. 
As we could hear them rumble and roar long 
before we could see them, we decided to take 
advice from some canoeists who had tried to 
run these rapids to their sorrow, and use the 
canal running around the rapids at this point. 
Hugging the north shore (left side going 
down stream) we entered the Grenville Canal. 
The entrance of the canal was lined with large 
blocks of stone to the height of about ten feet, 
and the first lock was several hundred feet from 
the beginning of the canal. At this point we 
obtained a permit to go through the canal, and 
then Dick strolled uptown to do the marketing. 
As it was getting late we pulled up for the night, 
camping on a fine elevation between the rapids 
and the canal. Pitching our tent under a ’arge 
tree, so as to command a view of the rapids, we 
enjoyed ourselves in picking a channel through 
the water, lashed into fury by the rocks obstruct¬ 
ing its progress. One of the chief stunts in get¬ 
ting supper ready was the opening of our canned 
goods with the aid of an axe, as we had over¬ 
looked our can opener when repacking at our 
camp that morning. Dick appeared to enjoy it 
less than I expected, and I did not say a word 
when he knocked the canned strawberries over 
during the operation. However, the first thing 
Dick did on reaching the next town was to buy 
a can opener. 
About 8:30 p. M. electric lights were lit all 
along the canal, making navigation as easy at 
night as by day, and we thought that this canal 
was, without question, keeping in touch with the 
progress of the day. Charles F.. Ryan.

The Post Series tournament, a full report of which is 
published elsewhere in our trap columns, is specially 
notable for the marvelous scores made each day, and 
therewith demonstrates the high degree of excellence ob¬ 
tained by the American high-class shooters, and the 
perfection of guns and ammunition furnished by the 
manufacturers. The Post Series tournament was a much 
needed event, to complete the general doings of trap¬ 
shooting year, and to determine who is who in the trap¬ 
shooting fraternity.
